Please delete, @rezaaslan. You have high trust. Kurt is wrong. Don’t amplify.

This is false. The first Africans brought to Virginia were indeed slaves, stolen from a Portuguese slave ship. Please correct. The issue of domination, exploitation, and brutality is still there, regardless of what the law states. https://www.virginiahistory.org/what-you-can-see/story-virginia/explore-story-virginia/1622-1763/virginia%E2%80%99s-traffic-atlantic-world …

Well it's not at all clear that it's true. So there's that. https://bit.ly/2GGlv6b

Well then. All is forgiven.

Corrected your lies about Covington yet you piece of trash. You claimed you heard the boys chanting build that wall. It's not on a single video. You lied and you smeared and defamed 16 year old boys. Grow a spine you coward
